There are hundreds of different schools of thought in the world. You have your plan, and I have my ladder for crossing the bridge.
But the same thing is that they all pay attention to an epiphany along the way.
In their view: A person who is enlightened possesses great wisdom that is difficult for ordinary people to achieve. The early stage of practice may be a little slow because the seven orifices are not yet opened. However, such people can often accumulate a lot. Once they enter the palace, their future prospects will be limitless.
The one-armed Li Yanfeng of Shuihe Temple was chatting with Liu Yi before he had an epiphany and entered the country.
Although Liu Yi is talented and intelligent, today, when he was watching Xia Zhanqing's painting of the military formation, after all, he only had a flash of inspiration, and no thoughts came to him to take a step further.
He looked at his nose with his eyes, his nose and his heart, and finally he took a long breath and let go of the thoughts that couldn't be squeezed out no matter how hard he squeezed them.
Xia Zhan saw Liu Yi's listless look, and an imperceptible smile appeared on his face with grooves. The moment Liu Yi was looking at him just now seemed to remind Xia Zhan of himself who was puzzled and had difficulty entering the country when he was young, and also I thought of my miserable life of being depressed and losing my son in his later years.
There are always gains and losses in life. Xia Zhan, who is not very talented, has the same ideal as all the people in the world, that is, to become an immortal who understands the mysteries and becomes a saint. In order to achieve great success in his spiritual practice, he abandoned his family and career when he was young and went to Jie alone. Binglin joined the military academy, and he swore not to enter Tongxuan or leave the mountain. His married wife went to Jiebinglin three times, but he refused to see her.
Life has passed by in a hurry, and Xia Zhan, who is already over sixty years old, is as frustrated as millions of people in the world. He has not been able to pursue the illusory Tongxuan Divine Realm.
He was extremely ambitious and followed in the footsteps of his predecessors.
He was disillusioned with his spiritual practice and planned to leave Jiebinglin and return to his hometown to retire. However, his hometown had already changed. Gongyangzhai, his hometown, was destroyed and massacred by Jiang Ruisheng. His wife died of illness, and even his son had turned into a pile of withered bones. .
It's too late to regret it when you're old but don't understand it!
Feeling the same, Xia Zhan most hated seeing an outstanding young man lonely and frustrated. Seeing that Liu Yi failed to seize the opportunity of enlightenment, he showed regret. He waved his sleeves and comforted softly, "The road is impermanent and the road is ruthless. , boy, life is a practice. If you don't catch it this time, it doesn't mean you will never catch it. If you don't succeed this time, it doesn't mean you will never catch it. You see, stupid people like me have also entered the upper realm. ?”
Liu Yi groaned for a long time, and then said, "If you say this, this junior will feel balanced!"
Bang!
Xia Zhan kicked Liu Yi away.
The kid who slaps his nose on his face!
...
Xia Zhan chatted with Liu Yi while controlling the purple energy that filled the sky like a sword.
Although Liu Yi learned some of the past and general distribution of the world from books, it was vague. Today, after listening to Xia Zhan's detailed analysis, he suddenly felt that there are endless heroes in the world!
"Hearing a word from the elder today can overcome ten years of hardship!"
Liu Yi walked out of the dense trees, stood beside Xia Zhan, and asked excitedly, "Grandpa Xia, what is the current situation of your military strategists?"
Xia Zhan carefully controlled the purple energy in front of him, and said angrily, "Bah! Today's military strategists are like a pot of rotten porridge. You can't even get out a piece of rotten meat with a spoon. It's very boring."
"Ah? Where do you start talking about this?" Liu Yi looked at Xia Zhan with his big eyes shining brightly and asked.
"Hmph! Luojia Temple in Luozhong County, Fengzhou, Jiebinglin in Shenyuanshan Mountain in Muzhou, and Pingrong Tingxue Terrace in Polu City, Bozhou. These three military sects all pride themselves on being the leaders of military strategists. Luojia Temple has heavy troops and powerful generals. , Pingrong listens to the snow platform and engages in heavy military formations, and the disbanding forest focuses on military positions and strategies. The three families have been fighting for decades, and no one can tell the winner. There is nothing greater than benevolence within, and nothing greater than etiquette outside. This is the case. Noisy and noisy like a shrew crossing the street, it makes outsiders laugh."
Xia Zhan, who was born in Jiebinglin, looked helpless, and his words were mixed with the meaning of hating that iron cannot be transformed into steel.
"Everyone has their own preferences for radish and cabbage. You can't expect everyone to see the mountains as mountains and the sea as the sea!"
Liu Yi consoled him in a loud voice, "It's just like today's world of tranquility and chaos. Who doesn't want to live a peaceful and prosperous life? However, the world's wealth is limited, but everyone in the world wants to have more money, greed, and more. On the contrary, it has caused a bloody storm. For hundreds of years, The heroes vying for the throne in the past, the rebellion of the kings decades ago, and the chaos in the family more than ten years ago all originated from this!"
Xia Zhan stared at Liu Yi with complicated eyes, looked up to the sky and sighed, "Liu Quansheng! You have given birth to a good son!"
Liu Yi sighed softly, "When it comes to having children, Grandpa Xia is even better!"
The two of them stopped talking and looked up at the formation that was growing in momentum.
...
The temple is about rules, but it is more about relationships!
Jianghu is about human kindness, but it is more about swords!
Spring is hard to find, and autumn is in the air. An old man and a young man are standing in the deep field where the chrysanthemums are blooming. The red autumn leaves reflect the low doors and windows. In the sky, there is a faint phosphorescent formation covering the sky. For a moment, Overshadowed all the scenery here.
Nearby farmers who were busy gathering rice and wheat saw the huge dome in the sky. They thought it was God's punishment, abandoned their farm tools and livestock, and quickly fled the scene.
Liu Yi saw that the formation stretched for several miles, with complex linear outlines, and various talismans carved on the purple lines. The bells in the formation were ringing like thunder, and the entire formation was glowing with a pure purple light, as if heavenly soldiers and generals were about to descend. The world makes people shudder.
"Grandpa Xia, this, this is a formation?" Liu Yi was horrified and asked cautiously.
Xia Zhan nodded arrogantly and said with a smile, "Pingrong Tingxuetai inherited the ancient Ten Jue Formation. When people come out of the formation, people can kill people while the formation is there. After years of deduction, his disciples derived the formation from the Ten Jue Formation. , countless, Feng Xin can barely be considered a genius, but facing my formation, thousands of formations will be eclipsed!"
Liu Yi was speechless for a while after hearing this, thinking: The old man is too ambitious. Pingrong Tingxuetai has created thousands of ways to form formations, but you only gave me a reluctant evaluation.
"Don't believe it! This formation is called the Purple Sand Formation. It is derived from the red sand formation in the Ten Jue Formations that I understood."
Xia Zhan moved his hands slightly and saw the formation slowly floating over Fengyi City, "This formation is arranged three inches apart from heaven, earth and people, divided into three qi in the middle, and contains three buckets of purple sand. It looks like purple sand, but it is actually Sharp blade. No one knows the sky above, no earth below, and no one in the middle. If someone rushes into this formation, the people guarding the formation will be hurt by flying sand, and their bodies and noses will immediately turn into powder. Even if gods and Buddhas are affected by this, No more escaping.”
"Old man, you, you want to massacre the city?"
After hearing Xia Zhan's explanation, Liu Yi immediately changed his expression, but then he thought about it, Xia Zhan was not the one who deliberately planned the killing, there must be other hidden reasons, so he calmed down and continued to ask, "Grandpa Xia, besides killing people, the purple sand formation , but are there other magical effects?”
Seeing Liu Yi reacting so quickly, Xia Zhan nodded and said, "The soldiers are impermanent and the water is impermanent. In addition to killing the enemies within the formation, this formation can also be used as a city defense formation. When attacked by the enemy, this formation can be used to send out troops." A small number of soldiers entering the formation in accordance with the law can create a force of thousands of troops, but the effectiveness will be greatly reduced!"
Liu Yi said 'Oh' and said, "Use a blinding method to confuse the enemy and make the enemy trapped in the formation, right?"
"Yes! But, child, do you know the true meaning of hiding the city in the purple sand array?"
Liu Yi replied calmly, "As soon as the divine formation comes out, the Huang family can't get close, can't retreat, and can't defend. The initiative is completely with me. Once the divine formation is activated, everything will be destroyed!"
Xia Zhan's face was expressionless.
Liu Yi felt like a mirror: The reason why Xia Zhan wanted to cover Fengyi County with a genuine killing array was probably not because he had any intention of killing, but because he just wanted to intimidate the Huang family into surrendering. However, there is always a chance of things happening. If the Huang family really refuses to surrender, who knows if Xia Zhan will become angry and start a killing array.
Since ancient times, those who fight and become hegemons have to see blood. These two points have nothing to do with good or evil.
Xia Zhan stood silently, and the two looked at each other without saying anything.
Liu Yi watched the large formation slowly falling, and finally disappeared into nothing in Fengyi City. The young man looked into the distance and breathed out softly, "It's another year when the geese go south. I wonder if the geese will return next year!"
After a long time, it was getting late and people were leaving.
Fires were lit in every house in the city, and the aroma of the food flowed into their noses along the north wind. Gurgling, gurgling, their stomachs growled unsatisfactorily at the same time. So, this old man under the sunset The young men and women looked at each other in unison and laughed.
Liu Yi lit the fire and started the cooking. After a while, the light wheat rice and bean soup was ready. The two of them ate with fragrant teeth and cheeks, and endless aftertaste.
Old Xia Zhan looked at the smoke rising from the direction of the Huang family, "Son, what are you going to do about the Huang family? I'll listen to you."
"This junior plans to be a bandit!" Liu Yi rubbed his belly and laughed, "You can leave, but you must keep the money!"
Old Xia Zhan said in a deep voice, "What if someone wants to leave but doesn't want to pay?"
Liu Yi thought for a while, curled his lips and said, "Then I will be a real bandit for once! Be a troublemaker for once!"
At this point, Liu Yi's eyebrows suddenly surged with murderous intent, "Kill!"
The old man couldn't see any changes on his face and asked, "Don't you think it goes against your original intention?"
Liu Yi acted very indifferently, "In urgent matters, follow the authority. Now that the troubles of the family have penetrated into the bones of the enemy's country, the younger generation, as people with lofty ideals, must eradicate evil and evil. Although killing the Huang family goes against the original intention, it does not go against the larger goals." The original intention does not violate the original intention!”
Xia Zhan savored the taste of the residue in his mouth and grinned, "You kid, you are making excuses for yourself!"
Liu Yi scratched his head and said, "Hey, no! Zhou Fu said that the younger generation is too upright and needs the combination of yin and yang to overcome great causes."
Xia Zhan glanced at Liu Yi, "That kid is so full of bad things, how many good things can he hold in?"
Liu Yi smiled and said, "Sometimes, being a rogue can save you a lot of trouble. If you lower your head and be thick-skinned, maybe this matter will be over!"
"Yeah!" Xia Zhan raised his lips slightly, neither agreeing nor objecting.
The two of them continued to look at the smoke from a distance, with their cool hair on their heads, waiting for the moonlight to fall.
Tonight is very difficult for me and the Huang family!
